I just wanted to drop in here and say this works a treat in sabnzbd for ssl connections on the dockstar. Before using an SSL enabled server sysload was over 0.90 (even sometimes >1.40), and now I'm seeing 0.40. This is running with 6 connections at ~8Mb/s or 990KB/s.

Thank You ruidc for confirming the issue for me I guess I'll need to wait for some other solution for OpenVPN. I only wonder whether this issue will cause other problems when using cryptodev with other software or is it more of a OpenVPN-OpenSSL (Cryptodev) centric problem.

Sorry moonman but this is completely unrelated 'fix', since the openvpn crashes long before even writing server/client configuration or even running, actually it's openssl that crashes at creating certificate authority (CA) for openvpn.
